It's usually also false, just a way to pretend one's smarter than others, a way of affecting "savvy"—as @jayrosen_nyu puts it. If you dig into to the "this isn't surprising" crowd you often find weak analytic ability and no prescient work that shows they really weren't surprised.https://twitter.com/lorenzofb/status/1033047965101903872 …

I agree. The Twitter refrain, "this is not surprising!" cannot be redeemed. No good comes from it. No patience should be extended toward it.

Maybe it's a kind of Twitter comment 2 ignore. But if some1 can provide more facts/show their work re: Y not surprised, that cd be good. Why not ask? Tho things need 2B documented, even if they seem obvious 2 some. Those documenting shd get the credit due them.
